    This is definitely a western movie. They didn't try to make it modern, it was exactly what it was supposed to be, and I liked it.

    This was supposed to be funny? I only laughed a couple of times, otherwise, not very good.

    So, there are some girlie movies I watch that I like, this isn't one of them. Pretty cheezy.

    A little far-fetched at times. Decent action movie, but a bit cheezy.

    When was the last time M. Night Shyamalan made a decent movie? The Sixth Sense?

    Funny movie. Lots of great dialog. Good mix between a crime movie and comedy.

    A truly sad story of cognitive dissonance. Good recreation of a true story.

    This movie shows some of the things about war that you don't see on TV or News. It shows how it can affect people and their families, and one person's story about how he tries to leave, but it commissioned for another tour.

    I was expecting a bit more from this, but overall, it was definitely and Indiana Jones style movie.

    Even though this is a "chick flick", I really liked this movie. It reminds me a lot about me growing up, not just as a kid, but as a person. I can relate to the movie a lot.

    A lot of action, interesting way of showing different perspectives. Nothing special though.

    I like these types of movies, a lot of action, twists and turns, and a somewhat unexpected ending. Good movie.

    It's a somewhat odd movie split into parts, but I never really put all the parts together in the end. Maybe I'll have to watch it again to understand.

    It basically seemed like a clone of the first movie. Nothing special here.

    I think this movie was a bit over-hyped. The self-shot camera format was a bit dizzy-ing. Entertaining, but not great.

    This movie looked like it could have been good, but jumped too much back and forth and never really developed.

    A spin on a classic gangster type movie, but Russian gangsters in London, with a guy who gets stuck in between doing what's right and wrong. Good movie.

    It was practically all musical, which is really not my style. Besides that, it was a good story, and that's about it. I'm not a gloomy fan, which is Tim Burton's style.

    The movie starts out really slow, and doesn't really have that great of a plot to me, but somehow kept my interest.
